550 What is Machine Knitting?
Hobbies & How-to | Registration opens 12/2/25 9:00 AM EST
These will be hands on classes! The first class will show what can be made with the machine. A simple quick scarf will be made. The second class will demonstrate how to: prepare yarn for the machine, putting the yarn on the machine, various knit stitches, taking the knitted item off the machine, joining edges, and adding an edge to a finished piece. Time will dictate how much is covered in each class.
